This was a picture from Lavena's phone when we were on the top of Baldpate. 

I had the privilege of attending open house at the Woodstock school for Estella and Brenna.
Brenna explained to us all the fun things she is learning in kindergarten, which includes a personal i-pad for each K student.  She probably knows more about using hers than I do.  All the things that K-kids use to do with pencil and paper they now have on an i-pad.  She is very excited and has made many friends.  It was fun to see her expressions as she directed us around the room and down the hall.  

Brenna is reading us her first book.
And they still learn how to write. 

And draw- this is her giraffe!!!!

Estella was also excited to show us all of her accomplishments.  She has a lot of energy and is a friendly spirit.   The school is small and so everyone knows each other from young to old.  It is very family oriented and caring and a wonderful place to get a good start. 

Estella has beautiful penmanship.  Nana, her great-great grandmother-  would be very proud of her neat work. 

We got a full description of her projects.  Estella is in second grade, but she thought it would be nice to go back to kindergarten to get the i-pad. 

Then Estella gave us a lesson in math.   Thankfully I got the correct answer.
We went off the the gym where they had cupcakes and treats.  It was a wonderful night, and I mostly enjoyed the enthusiasm that both girls have for learning at school and outside of school.
